In this study, we culturally adapted the Philanthropy Scale for Iranian university students, assessing its validity and reliability. Our sample included 600 students from Tehran and Tabriz universities. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) validated the three-factor model, demonstrating excellent fit values. Internal consistency, measured by Cronbach's Alpha, was α =.838 for the total score. Sub-dimensions had values of α =.812 (“not being self-seeking and being sincere”), α =.745 (“love and unconditional acceptance”), and α =.689 (“honesty”). Spearman-Brown correlation coefficients, assessed via the split-half method, were r =.825 for the total score, r =.757 (“not being self-seeking and being sincere”), r =.705 (“love and unconditional acceptance”), and r =.769 (“honesty”). These results signify robust reliability. © 2024 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
